Golden Signoff Accuracy, Performance, Scalability for Accelerated Turnaround Time

PrimeLib solution includes a comprehensive array of library characterization and QA capabilities that are tuned to produce PrimeTime? signoff quality libraries with maximum throughput on available compute resources. PrimeLib¡¯s innovative technologies utilize embedded gold reference SPICE engines to provide a characterization speed up of advanced Liberty? models used by PrimeTime static timing analysis (STA) to accurately account for effects seen in ultra-low voltage FinFET processes that impact timing. This includes PrimeTime parametric on-chip variation (POCV), advanced waveform propagation (AWP) and electromigration (EM) analysis. PrimeLib is cloud-ready, and with its optimized scaling technology delivers an accelerated throughput on cloud or an on-premise cluster.
